As an Electrical Engineer I am utterly appalled at the intellectual slop that passes for science in biology. Engineers would lose their jobs in droves if they tolerated the mushy thinking and lack of rigor that is routine in biology.
Today: 7 Urban Legends Biologists Believe…. but an Engineer Would Know Better:
Two groups of people insist that Genesis and modern interpretations of science are incompatible: Secularists and Young Earth Creationists. These two camps have done great damage to the credibility of scripture. But today I would like to suggest to you that there’s a Third Way.
A modern literal interpretation of Genesis 1 matches modern cosmology, geology and the fossil record… exactly.
The Berlin Wall in East Germany fell on November 9, 1989, after 28 years of isolation. When the dominoes of communism began to fall, the speed at which they tumbled was amazing.
Today, Darwinism is in the same place in 2010 as communism was in 1986. It’s wheezing like a dying animal. Flailing wildly. Draining limited resources defending itself against attackers. It’s barely able to feed its own people, let alone advance useful scientific theories of its own.
A Counterpart to the Anthropic Principle: The Genome Intelligence Principle
In astronomy we have the Anthropic Principle, which is both an observation and a hypothesis that the universe appears to be fine tuned to support life.
I postulate a Genome Intelligence Principle. It is analogous to the Anthropic Principle, as it both observes and presupposes a higher level of order than mere laws of physics or chance would allow.
Earlier I proposed that evolution is driven by a “Mutation Algorithm.” I said the Mutation Algorithm is the highest software layer in DNA and it explores evolutionary pathways by testing new features (fur, skin patterns, claws, limbs, wings) like switching out blades on a Swiss Army Knife.
I explained why Junk DNA is one of the most backwards theories in the history of modern science.
I said that the “random mutation” theory of evolution is an anti-scientific proposal which fails to presume underlying order and teaches us nothing.
Today I continue with the implications of turning Darwinism on its head and assuming DNA operates top-down not bottom-up:
3% of our DNA codes for proteins. For many years nobody knew what the other 97% was for.
Since the 1970’s, that other 97% that wasn’t understood has been called “Junk DNA.”
(If I only had a dollar for every guy who has sent me an email that said, “OK Perry, then if DNA is designed how come 97% of my DNA is junk? Huh? Answer me that!!!”)
Today’s hypothesis is very simple:
